Charles and Simon proposed to travel to Environment 2007, an international conference on “Integrated Sustainable Energy Resources in Arid Regions” in the United Arab Emirates. “Because of the importance of conferences to the study of the environment — for example, the Kyoto and Montreal Protocols, the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro — we wanted to experience these major transfers of knowledge for ourselves,” says Charles. “Our professors were very supportive of the project.” Then they had to find the funds to attend the conference. The Political Studies Department, the Athletic Department, and The McConnell Student Opportunity Fund provided some funding. Charles and Simon worked hard to raise the remainder. At every basketball game they sold tickets for a halftime court shot contest. They were also grateful for help from Peter Dunn ’66. Before attending the conference at the end of January, Charles and Simon spent time conducting research on sustainable energy and development and on the cultural background of the Middle East. The conference was a great experience. “We were able to ask questions in the lecture hall and talk to people at the exhibitions.” What struck Charles most? “Although experts can meet and talk about solutions and build the latest technology, saving the environment is ultimately up to the attitude of individuals.” Charles is optimistic about the future. “The fact that a country in the heart of the Middle East whose wealth is in fossil fuel energy is interested in sustainable fuels is very encouraging. I believe there will be significant progress in my lifetime.” Spring 2007 Bishop’s University News • 3 Principal Issues his time of year is an exciting and stressful to campus to meet with students.

    40th U SPORTS Annual Meeting and 2017 Conference: Dheensaw, Dufresne, Hrycak and Zimmerman honoured June 7, 2017 TORONTO (U SPORTS) – Trailblazing basketball coach Olga Hrycak, reporter Cleve Dheensaw, long-time athletic director and basketball bench boss Coleen Dufresne, and late football advocate and business leader Adam Zimmerman were honoured Wednesday night at the U SPORTS Awards Gala as part of the 40th Annual Meeting and 2017 conference. PHOTOS: Dropbox Olga Hrycak, Jean-Marie De Koninck Coaching Excellence Award Hrycak took home the Jean-Marie De Koninck Coaching Excellence Award, which honours since 2007 an individual who has made an outstanding contribution to university sport as demonstrated by long-term commitment and leadership as a coach at the local, provincial, national and/or international levels. The first woman in North America to coach a university men’s basketball team, Hrycak served as bench boss of the UQAM Citadins from 2003 to 2015, coaching over 300 games, and winning RSEQ Championships in 2006 and 2010. A member of the coaching staff at the Los Angeles 1984 Olympics, Hrycak was inducted into the Canadian Basketball Hall of Fame in May. “The decision to integrate UQAM to the RSEQ basketball circuit was intrinsically linked to Olga Hrycak’s presence,” said UQAM coordinator of sports excellence Daniel Methot. “She had the most experience and was the most respected coach at the college level. For UQAM’s program to start successfully, we needed Olga.” Cleve Dheensaw, Fred Sgambati Media Award Dheensaw received the Fred Sgambati Media Award, presented to a member of the media in recognition of major contributions to the development and growth of Canadian university sport.
